Supplies
What you will need:
- 1 skein of yarn
- scissors
- crochet hook
- tapestry needle
Stitches Used/Abbreviations:
- st = stitch
- ch = chain
- sl st = slip stitch
- sc = single crochet
- dc = double crochet
Pattern:
For this project I recommend a medium weight (#4) yarn. I used a 5.0mm or size H crochet hook but you can use whatever size you need to get the right gauge. The yarn I used is Soft Secret yarn by Yarn Bee from Hobby Lobby. I love how soft it is and all the color options they have.
Gauge: 4x4" square = 15 dc sts by 8 dc rows
To begin ch 16.
Row 1: Starting in the 2nd ch from hook, sc in the first 3 sts, dc in next 9 sts, sc in last 3 sts. ch 1, turn. (15)
Now repeat this row [sc 3, dc 9, sc 3] until your project is long enough to go all the way around your steering wheel. For me it took 108 rows. Depending on how tight or lose you crochet and how stretchy your yarn is you might need more or less.
Note: When you are measuring for your length you want it to stretch around your steering wheel so it is tight enough not to spin when you are driving.
Once it is long enough, bind off leaving a long tail and sew your two ends together.
Now you can just slip it over your steering wheel. I love how mine turned out and now I smile every time I get into my car.
